P2707 on Lincoln: How to Diagnose & Fix
Shift Solenoid "F" Performance/Stuck Off
1 Lincoln model · 1 documented issue
P2707 on Lincoln by model: symptoms, diagnosis and fix
Some 2020-2023 Lincoln Aviators equipped with a 10R60 and built on or before December 23, 2022, or a 10R80 MHT and built on or before August 15, 2022, may have harsh or delayed engagement and/or harsh or delayed shifts. Ford TSB 22-2428 says the condition may involve PCM/TCM software, the transmission solenoid-ID strategy, sticking main-control valves, or axial movement of the CDF clutch-cylinder sleeve. The complaint may occur with or without a malfunction indicator and the bulletin's listed transmission DTCs. The symptom alone does not select a valve body, CDF cylinder, or complete transmission.
Common Symptoms
- Harsh engagement
- Delayed engagement
- Harsh shift
- Delayed shift
- Malfunction indicator with a bulletin-listed transmission DTC
How to Fix
Have a Ford/Lincoln-capable technician confirm the transmission and build date, retrieve PCM/TCM faults, and follow TSB 22-2428 in order. The bulletin begins with available PCM/TCM programming and an adaptive-learning drive cycle, then uses the stored faults and clutch behavior to select an accelerated main-control break-in routine. If the condition remains, the procedure can require main-control overhaul and, only after the bulletin's later tests fail, condition-specific internal transmission repair. Parts and coverage must be selected by VIN and the actual failed step; this record intentionally has no buy link.
Owner tips & cautions
- TipRecord the exact shift or engagement event and ask for the PCM/TCM fault report plus the TSB decision-tree step that failed before approving internal transmission work.
- WarningDo not order a valve body or CDF part from harsh shifting alone; Ford's procedure can resolve the condition through programming, adaptive learning, or clutch cycling before parts are selected.

Frequently asked questions
What does P2707 mean on a Lincoln?
P2707 stands for "Shift Solenoid "F" Performance/Stuck Off." This code means the transmission control module detected that shift solenoid "F" is not performing correctly or appears stuck in the off position. Shift solenoids route hydraulic fluid to engage gears, so a stuck or underperforming solenoid prevents the transmission from shifting as commanded. Symptoms typically include harsh shifts, failure to shift into certain gears, or limp mode. It should be addressed to avoid driveability problems and possible further transmission damage. On Lincoln it is documented across 1 model: Aviator.
What are the most common causes of P2707?
The most common causes of P2707 are: Faulty or stuck shift solenoid F, Low or contaminated transmission fluid, Clogged solenoid screen or valve body passage, Wiring or connector faults to the solenoid, Valve body wear or sticking valve, Internal hydraulic leak, Faulty TCM. The specific cause varies by vehicle.
How much does it cost to fix P2707 on a Lincoln?
Repair costs vary widely with the root cause and Lincoln model; each issue on this page carries its own estimate where one is published.
